We extend earlier work [Phys.Rev.Lett. 84, 3740 (2000)] on the statistical mechanics of the cubic one-dimensional discrete nonlinear Schrodinger (DNLS) equation to a more general class of models, including higher dimensionalities and…
We consider the asymptotics of the one-dimensional cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with an external potential $V$ that does not admit bound states. Assuming that $\jBra{x}^{2+}V(x) \in L^1$ and that $u$ is orthogonal to any…
We study the long-time behaviour of the focusing cubic NLS on $\R$ in the Sobolev norms $H^s$ for $0 < s < 1$. We obtain polynomial growth-type upper bounds on the $H^s$ norms, and also limit any orbital $H^s$ instability of the ground…
We consider the Schr\"odinger equation with a Hamiltonian given by a second order difference operator with nonconstant growing coefficients, on the half one dimensional lattice. This operator appeared first naturally in the construction and…

Discrete wave mechanics describes the evolution of classical or matter waves on a lattice, which is governed by a discretized version of the Schr\"odinger equation. While for a vanishing lattice spacing wave evolution of the continuous…
Following the Killip-Kiselev-Last method, we prove quantum dynamical upper bounds for discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with Sturmian potentials. These bounds hold for sufficiently large coupling, almost every rotation…
We study the stability of the Schr\"odinger equation generated by time-dependent Hamiltonians with constant form domain. That is, we bound the difference between solutions of the Schr\"odinger equation by the difference of their…
Quantum dynamics, typically expressed in the form of a time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation with a Hermitian Hamiltonian, is a natural application for quantum computing. However, when simulating quantum dynamics that involves the emission…
We consider the defocusing nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger equation in several space dimensions, in the presence of an external potential depending on only one space vari-able. This potential is bounded from below, and may grow arbitrarily fast…
Bounds on high-order derivative moments of a passive scalar are obtained for large values of the Schmidt number, $Sc$. The procedure is based on the approach pioneered by Batchelor for the viscous-convective range. The upper bounds for…
We present an approach to quantum dynamical lower bounds for discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators which is based on power-law bounds on transfer matrices. It suffices to have such bounds for a nonempty set of energies. We apply…
When an eigenvector of a semi-bounded operator is positive, we show that a remarkably simple argument allows to obtain upper and lower bounds for its associated eigenvalue. This theorem is a substantial generalization of Barta-like…

We provide a simple proof of the Lieb-Robinson bound and use it to prove the existence of the dynamics for interactions with polynomial decay. We then use our results to demonstrate that there is an upper bound on the rate at which…
